Every member of the state bar, including active, nonresident active and inactive members, must maintain a public mailing address and telephone number with the state bar, SCR 79. All members must immediately advise the Member Services Department of any change in address or be subject to a $150 fine. The fine will be imposed if this change is not made within 30 days. Please be informed the SCR 79 address of record may be released to the public, so choose this address carefully. The state bar allows an alternate mailing address as long as the SCR 79 address is on file with state bar. Further, the state bar may send notices relating to state bar operations to members via facsimile transmissions unless instructed otherwise by the member.
